On account Of the strict quarantine

Dealers Association of that city applied
to the State Board of Health for COM

which is one of their principal shipping
ports, to, thoroughly investigate the aani-
tary condition of, that port and its SUP

said, committee would decide the question
as to. whether fruit vessels coming from
that port should be subject to the fifteen
days quarantine after the first day OF
May. After due consideration the State
Board of Health in, January decided to
send the committee asked for. DR.. G. 3.

having suffered agonies of pain since.

The Rev. E. P. McClintock has been
very faithful in his ministrations to the
wounded man, and MIR. Jones found great
comfort in talking with him with regard
to the future. About IL o'clock last
night his mind cleared up, it seemed,
almost entirely, and he called all the
family around him, and, after kissing
them bood-bye, one by one, all knelt in

pathetic, most touching scenes ever
beheld. He seemed to realize the situa.

Mr. Jones was the youngest son Of
Major Lambert ]. Jones, and grandson
of John Belton O'Neal, whose name he
bore. He was one of the most prami.

with bright future before him. 1t is
sad, very sad for him to be cut down in

DEAra oF. HON. D. WYATT AIKEN.

III L
The friends Of. Col. D. Wyatt Aiken
will regret to learn that the hopes of his
recovery, which were entertained q few
days ago, ., we're suddenly dissipased by an
alarming relapse, which terminated in
his death at seven o o'clock on Wednesday
morning, the 9th inst, at his residence
in Cokesbury. Col. Aiken was son Of
the late Governor Aiken, of this State,
and IVES al the time Of his death some.
thing oyes sixty years Of age. He. was
& aman' of liberal education, having grad
uated at the, South Carolina College
before the war. Col. Aiken devoted his
attention 70 agriculture, and spent the
greater portion Of his life on the farm.
He edited several agricultural papers
from time to time, notably the Rural
Carokinian, and was noted and forcefnl
contributor and lecturer upon agricnltu-
raj topics. He was one Of the leading
organizers of the Grange, was a promi-
nent and influential member Of the State
Agricultural Society, and for many years
Its. president. Col. Aiken was the COM
manders of q regiment in the Confederate
service, and lost heavily in finances by
the result Of the war. He was q most
vigorous and ontspoken Democrat, and
had trouble on more than one occasion
with the Federal garrisons on account Of
his independent speech. =
In.ls76 he was candidate for Con.
gtess from this District, and secured the
nomination.: in race ID which Col.
james a. Hoyt and Col. James N. Lips
comb were his competitors, by few
votes majority over Col. Hoyt. In the
ensuing Congress he proved a most
: potent factor for the Democracy. His
combat upon the stump with ex. Governor
Chamberlain in Abbeville, and Judge
Hoge il Anderson, will long be remem-
bered by those who we're present for the
bitter and effective denunciation with
which he exposed the evils Of the Repub-
lican regime. Col. Aiken vas renomi.
mated without opposition until 1884,
when he was opposed by Messrs. E. B.
Murray, George tombstone and R. E..
Bowen, and was renominated after two
days Of balloting. Col. Aiken was never
liable to take his seat in the Congress to-
which this nomination elected him, as be
received an injury in his hip from q fall
ntbe ice upon the Capital steps,, from
which be suffered intensely, and which
ultimately caused his death.
Col. Aiken was an elder in the Presby.
terian church, and was an upright,
respected iapd conscientious man. Fear
less ii the assertion Of his principles, he
sometimes appeared extreme, but he was
always candid and outspoken. His
death is loss to the State, as we'll as to
tho community 10 which he lived.

all of the fruit from the interior was
brought to the city. Notwithstanding
this kind of transportation there is an
immense business done in shipping fruits
from this city to foreign countries. I
learned that they shipped last season
eighteen millions of cccosnuts, and hun.
dreds of thousands punches of bananas.
also learned that there was annually
more fruit shipped from the city of Bar
acoa than from all the other ports in the
world. The harbor is generally filled
with vessels from foreign ports to be
loaded with fruit, and every day some
-loaded and going out, others coming in,
and also the small vessels coming in
loaded from along the coast, almost
every hour in the day, and the harbor
all 9. time has lively aspect, these
vessels being loaded and uDloaded by a
large force of negroes from morning until
night, singing their Spanish songs, and
smoking their cigars as they work.
There is in the city number of stores
that carry large stocks of goods, and some
very pretty stores that carry smaller
stock, and in them there seems to be 8
great deal Of business, excLanging goods
fnr fruit. One merchant told me that
he usually took liens on the fruit crops
yearly for 8 half million Of dollars, about
in the same way the merchants take
liens here. All merchants keep aud sell
spirits, more especially wines. Very
few Americans ever visit that portion of
the Island. There are no hotels or res.
taurants in the city. No place for stran.
gers to stop at, should they visit that
place. There is but one church, lCatho.
